HOUSEPOINT TOTAL<\/strong><\/h3>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]After a close race throughout Term 2 and an exciting finish (with our Term 2 totals being so close), there was no question that Term 3 would get off to a close and exciting start as the Weekly Housepoint Total battle resumed!<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Collectively, Primary earned an impressive <\/span>879 housepoints<\/b> and our Year 3 class claimed victory as the class champions, with an average of <\/span>8 housepoints per pupil<\/b>!<\/span><\/p>\n

The battle between our 3 houses was close, as we have seen on so many occasions and only a few housepoints separated the top spots.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The housepoints awarded to each team was:<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In 3rd place with <\/span>290 <\/b>housepoints is<\/span> Sapi<\/b>!<\/b><\/p>\n

In 2nd place with <\/span>293 <\/b>housepoints is <\/span>Sulug<\/b>!<\/b><\/p>\n

In 1st place with <\/span>296 <\/b>housepoints is <\/span>Gaya<\/b>!<\/b><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Our congratulations go to <\/span>Gaya Pangolin<\/b>s who clinched the victory in for this first week of Term 3!<\/span><\/p>\n
